“60 Field Intelligence Officers apprehend an individual with this illegal firearm!”
Um … what?

It means FIO’s from the 60th Precinct. They call themselves 60 as a shorthand or slang term.

So instead of personnel overkill what we have is a buffoon posting grammatically incorrect information on social media

And what makes it an “illegal firearm”? A non-badged non-elite was the person in possession.

“Intelligence Officers.”
Not “Inspector.” Nor “Detective.”
Intelligence Officers.

Everyone involved needs to be embarrassed.

@ Fred
In England, they would have needed 60 to disarm a knife weilding subject.

New York City is not an American jurisdiction. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights do not apply there. It may as well be a foreign country — ESPECIALLY with regard to gun laws.
It is a police state where everything is illegal except for sodomy and abortion.

And just to follow up; look at the the gun though! Stay safe out there folks.

This passes for policing and they actually put a face to it.
And there Bragging!
Absolutely….ZERO, Self-Respect as a Agency.
This is Sad and Great at the same time.

Hey, there is some good news here: in making the arrest, the NYPD only expended 50 rounds of ammunition and only hit 5 innocent bystanders, and none of the wounds were immediately fatal. So, you know, their marksmanship is getting well…I hesitate to say “better,” but at least “less abysmal”.

@ X – New York has been a “den of iniquity” for a long time.
It was New York that actually set the standard by legalizing the murder of the defenseless unborn in 1970, 3 years before Roe V Wade, by allowing women from anywhere to have
a legal abortion. (Although Hawaii had already legalized abortion, it applied only to residents of that state).
The bill was passed by a Republican controlled legislature and signed by a Republican governor (Rockefeller). In 1972, the Legislature voted to repeal the 1970 law, but Rockefeller vetoed it.
New York has led the nation in the slaughter of unborn children ever since.

The handgun would appear to be especially dangerous given that it is laying there, hammer cocked, poised to jump up and kill someone…..with the corrosion on the finish it looks like it fired black powder cartridge’s which is corrosive and I believe had fallen out of use around 1900-ish in favor of a non-corrosive variety.

So NYPD was able to pull 60 officers away from protecting a BLM “mural” on the street and send them to raid an antique shop to get an antique revolver “off the street.”
The people there must feel so safe.

I’ll bet they first “confiscated” that gun about 1912, when the Sullivan Law was put in place, and that it has been “confiscated” many times since then. The people who have the real guns there, they don’t go after, because they shoot back, and the NYPD want to live long enough to collect their pensions.

It appears the individual in question was apprehended from the bottom of the Hudson River and that he might have been there since before serial numbers on guns were common, hence the ‘illegal’ firearm.

Whew! Another deadly “assault pistol”, “weapon of war”, “Saturday Night Special”, “[insert BS phrase here]” “off the streets”!
